This place is our ride-or-die Filipino restaurant, and for good reason. Every visit, we roll with the same legendary order: Lumpia Shanghai à la carte, combo sisig, and a bowl of garlic rice and every single time, it hits like a warm hug from someone's lola. The food is Asian comfort at its absolute peak. The lumpia? Crispy, savory perfection. The sisig? Sizzling, bold, and dangerously addictive. And that garlic rice was simple, fragrant, and the kind of side dish that quietly steals the whole show. The service and ambiance are exactly what you'd expect from a tasty Asian restaurant. you will leave stuffed, satisfied, and already planning your next visit before you've even left the parking lot. If you know Filipino food, you already know. And if you don't...this is your sign to find out. read more

Really enjoyed this Filipino spot -- the portions are generous, the food is flavorful, and everything came out fresh and satisfying. We ordered a couple of silog dishes along with the sizzling chicken sisig. One silog plate came with beef tapa (with the option of grilled or pan-fried) and chicken tocino, while the other included longanisa and pork tocino. Everything paired perfectly with their garlic fried rice, which was honestly one of the highlights of the meal. The sizzling chicken sisig was packed with flavor, and the portions were definitely enough to share or take leftovers home. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. I also noticed two different families order the lechon kawali and kare-kare, and both said those are their favorite dishes here -- definitely taking that as a recommendation for next time. Looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu! read more

I was really excited to try this spot and ended up going all in with 5 dishes for takeout. Overall, the flavors leaned a bit on the salty side, especially the pork sizzling sisig. The Lechon Kawali was the star for me: a great balance of fat and meat with perfectly crispy skin that hit all the right notes. The halo halo was also a win, with generous amounts of toppings, though I still have to say Jollibee spaghetti remains superior in my book. One thing that surprised me was that the sisig doesn't come with rice; you have to add it on for an extra $4-5, which felt a little steep and not super clear upfront. read more

​Stopped by Chibog on a Saturday around 5:45 PM and the line was already out the door. We waited about 30 minutes to get in, but once we were seated, the service was incredibly efficient: I was eating within 10 minutes of sitting down. ​I ordered the Chicken Tocino, and the portions are definitely generous. The chicken had a great, distinct char to it that added a lot of flavor, and the garlic rice was spot on. ​One heads up for regulars: They've changed their silog policy and now only serve one egg instead of two. The menu posted outside still says two, so check the physical menu inside for the most up-to-date info. Also, it gets pretty warm inside since there's no AC, so definitely keep that in mind if you're visiting on a hot day! read more

Chibog - Chicken Tocino Silog - Filipino Near Me - Daly City, California

Came here for a weekday lunch and had a delicious meal. We got the pork sisig and the diniguan with a side of rice. The service was friendly and food came out quick. The sisig got a great crust on the bottom and the diniguan had rich flavor. It also came with a pepper you could break for some spice. Their hours are kind of odd, so it's hard to grab dinner there on a weeknight unless you have an early dinner. So maybe stop by for lunch or in the afternoon. read more

We came to Chibog after hearing it had the best sisig in town. The sisig came out on a sizzling plate. The portion was generous for two people to share. It was great - savory, crispy. We paired it with a side of garlic fried rice, which was the perfect combo. No complaints here as it wasn't ground breaking and just good old comfort food. I would definitely come back to try more Filipino classics on the menu! read more

Great Filipino food! Came here on a Saturday afternoon with a fairly large group of people (7) but we were seated pretty fast since some in our party arrived earlier than others. The restaurant itself is no-frills, which is what I expected. We ordered a handful of dishes to share: lechon kawali, chopsuey vegetables, lumpia shanghai, sizzling sisig, longanisa, and bowl of garlic rice. It was more than enough food for all of us, and we even had a good size of leftovers to take home. My favorite was the longanisa - it was so flavorful! The lumpia shanghai was good but a little drier than I'm used to. I would recommend everything except the chopsuey vegetables. It was pretty bland and felt overpriced for what it was (basically just standard mixed stir fry veggies with a bit of chicken in it). Overall, I would recommend coming here if you love Filipino food or want to try Filipino food! Would love to come back and try more things on the menu. read more

Someone saw me eating adobo at my kids swim class and told me I needed come here. And I'm glad they did. Chibog is fantastic: the food is great and flavorful, the servers are very friendly, and the portions are generous. We started with the lumpia Shanghai: the wrapper was crispy and light. The pork filling was tasty. We also got the sizzling sisig: this was a really good dish: the pork was shredded and very crispy from the skillet. However, I should note that it's more made of like shredded pork shoulder. I've also had sisig which is more made of fattier parts (like ears and tripe), which I really like. We also got the string beans and squash in coconut sauce. This was a great dish. My son doesn't usually eat vegetables, but he liked this. It pairs really nicely with the garlic rice (which was also outstanding). read more

Love this place!! For those who are unable to make the long lines at Katsuland, Chibog is also delicious! My favorite is the barbecue chicken a la carte - so good and plentiful portion! Simple goodness that should be part of any order. When I returned with friends, we got the sisig as well as the lechon. The sisig was unfortunately a little dry, but overall still very good. More of a 3.9, but it doesn't change the fact that I like Chibog's :) The lechon was unfortunately even drier so we were kinda hovering on a 2.9. The garlic rice it came with (it's an option for all the entrees) was good though so getting the combo add-on is a good choice for those who prefer more variety than straight meat. (Next time, I wanna try the calamansi drink which is one of my favorite citrus drinks it's an elite lemon lime from Philippines.) I'll definitely come back after a heavy gym session or if the lines at Katsuland are too long :) Salamat Chibog's! read more

Was originally going to hit up King Katsu as a friend was interested in trying the spot; but there was a bit of a wait so we ended up deciding on going to Chibog instead. It was my first time here and but my friends have said the food was really good and it didn't disappoint! Came in on a Saturday around noon and we were able to grab a table without waiting. The restaurant has a chill and homey vibe to it; a very typical Asian style restaurant. Service was pretty good and staff was super helpful and attentive in answering any questions that we had. Staff came by often to refill waters as well. We decided to share 3 dishes: 1) BBQ Chicken(A La Carte)(8/10) - A very good BBQ chicken dish! Cooked to perfection; super juicy and tender - savory and lightly sweet along with bits of char for that smokey flavor! Portions are generous with about 6+ pieces of chicken thighs! 2) Sizzling Sisig(Combo with Egg)(7.5/10) - Not my favorite sisig, but a very good one! The combo comes with pork and chicken, which works pretty together; usually I opt for pork since it is more crispier and has more umami from the pork's fattiness. This sisig's flavor was well balanced with it leaning more towards tangy/sour taste profile. I just wished that the meat was crispier. The egg was cooked perfectly(over easy) and adds a bit of creaminess to the sisig when mixed together with the runny egg yolk. 3) Lechon Kawali(Silog - with Garlic Rice and Eggs)(6.8/10) - I thought this dish was just okay...the pork was a bit tough and dry; wasn't very crispy either. Maybe it was a bad batch or the pork that we got was a bit too lean. The garlic rice that came with the silog plate was very good; garlicky without being overpowering. Chibog is an very unassuming spot with Filipino comfort food that just hits the spot! The portions are super generous and the prices are reasonable! If you're ever craving Filipino food, this is a solid option to go to! read more

Food was great. The restaurant is pretty cozy and I see it always busy. They have a shared parking lot.

If you're craving for some home cooked Filipino food with generous portions, look no further because this place delivers! My brothers and I came here on a Sunday morning before the rush for our Super Sunday Feast. We ordered a little bit of everything for the three of us to share, and everything was amazing and freshly made. My personal favorite is a toss-up between the Kare-Kare classic and the Lechon. Honestly, everything we had was a hit. All the dishes paired well with the big bowl of garlic rice that came with our meal. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes you get. The staff was very welcoming to us and throughout the meal, and you can see how hype they are to serve their delicious food. Just be prepared that you may eat so much that you'll fall into a food coma like we did. There is plenty of seating inside (about 30-36 seats), but the place gets filled quickly because of its popularity. They also have a decent sized parking lot that is shared with another popular restaurant. read more

Heard about Chibog while reading a blog post from The Infatuation of their favorite restaurants in Daly City and was excited to finally get to try it during my first visit to the area yesterday considering how big Filipino cuisine is there. At around 1-2PM there was a few people waiting out the door with the restaurant at full capacity (they had a sign that said 49 max capacity but there probably was only 15ish patrons who took up all the seating so its not really a large space. We waited around 15 minutes to get seated. The menu items can look pretty pricy, but are completely justified when you actually see them come out. The portions here aren't explicitly "family style" but definitely feel that way - seeing a few of the dishes come out made us decide to only order the one entree we had been looking forward to: the sizzling sisig + a large serving of garlic rice. For two people, even just ordering those two were more than enough - we could only finish 2/3 of the sisig and less than half of the bowl of rice. Really good bang for your buck here. The sisig was really good and met the hype. One of the best things about it was the inclusion of a hefty portion of chopped peppers which gave it a nice kick. The pork was also very meaty compared to other restaurants' sisig, which tend to be more on the cartilage-y side which can be good if you like that style of sisig. However, the one downside was that it wasn't crunchy at all - some spots will have either chicharon or some other pork crackling which provides that incredible contrast of flavor and I felt it was sorely needed here. There was a bit of crispiness and char but left a bit more to be desired. Overall a really solid choice for Filipino cuisine in Daly City and glad to have tried it! read more

Chibog - Sizzling Sisig + Garlic Rice - Filipino Near Me - Daly City, California

Came in with no wait on a Saturday afternoon and we loved the food here! Chibog is tucked away in a small Daly City plaza and is homey, mom and pop style Filipino food with attentive service. Our waiters were helpful, friendly, and quick with our drinks. We ordered the bbq chicken and pancit bihon. Ordering the chicken a la carte was great-- plenty of meat and came with a side of vinegar sauce. For $2 less you can also get it silog style with garlic rice and two eggs, but we opted for a la carte since we already ordered another carb. Pancit bihon was excellent and came with a slice of lemon for some extra acidity. Would love to come back for halo halo and some kare kare! I noticed for the halo halo you can order ube or mango ice cream and was a huge portion and lots of people were ordering the kare kare. read more

The halo halo was good with the Ube ice cream, don't forget to grab a bowl so you can mix it with the jelly and shaved ice. Will come back again for the Lechon Kawali! read more

After a long hiatus, we returned to Chibog on Sunday, December 7, 2025, for a birthday brunch for Uncle Danny. He wanted tapsilog, so I recommended that we go here. Reservations are still not accepted at Chibog, so when we arrived at around 1:30 PM, our party of seven had to wait about half an hour to be seated. The venue, a single dining room with wooden tables and chairs, remains unchanged, but they have shortened their business hours, closing at 6:00 PM (5:30 PM for carryout) on most nights and at 7:00 PM (6:30 PM for carryout) on Fridays and Saturdays. Sadly, service has not improved and is still pretty under par. Initially, only 2 plates for appetizers were served to our table. When the Lumpiang Shanghai (20 pcs, $17.50) and Fried Lumpia (4 pcs, $11.25) were served, we asked for the rest of the plates, but only 3 were given. We had to ask for the missing 2 and they said, "We ran out of the small plates. I guess we will just give you big plates." Yeah, of course, I mean, did they expect the remaining of us to eat without plates?? The response made it evident that they didn't forget the last couple of plates, they just simply gave up and figured that they would just let us deal. Not cool. Additionally, one of the Ube Milk Shakes ($8.25 each) and the Tortang Talong ($17.95) were served considerably later than everything else...and they completely forgot to serve Sisa's coconut juice. One of the waitresses never smiled nor offered any apologies for the forgotten coconut juice. Many times, I went to the counter to ask for things like salt & pepper, to go containers, etc. My self-service was faster and sans neglect. Luckily, most of the food is still good. In fact, I can retract my advice in my original review to avoid the Tapa and Bistek as the beef were lean this time. The boys found the Tocino, both pork and chicken, to be tasty, but fatty. Unfortunately, though, the Silogs now come with only one egg and they charge an extra fee if you want to order a second. The slice of tomato that usually accompanies silogs is also not free. Additionally, Uncle Danny found the combo Sizzling Sisig ($22.50) to be so salty that he told Sisa that she should return the plate to be remade, but she was fine with it. The Tortang Talong and Lechon Kawali were ok and the Avocado Milk Shake ($8.25) could have been a little stronger in avocado flavour. Z, V and Mom enjoyed the Ube Milk Shakes and the Halo-halo was yummy. Although I was happy with my food, the consensus was that brunch was a bit disappointing. The boys actually said that they would prefer not to return, which was surprising to me. I guess that I will need to stick to carryout here. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. Don't believe the sign, they say service animals are welcome, but I was just refused service because of my service animal. I even explained the situation respectfully to the manager, trying to do the right thing, and was still denied. I came all the way from Las Vegas, genuinely excited to try this place. To be treated like this after making that trip was beyond disappointing, it was humiliating. If you're going to post that service dogs are allowed, follow through. Otherwise, you're not only misleading people, but violating basic rights. Thank you for absolutely nothing. read more

Chibog is a good Filipino food place and feels very familial. The food comes in large portions and will definitely stick your bones. For me, this is the place I go if I want hearty, greasy Filipino food. Their Chicken sisig is something I could eat all day! Silogs are my go to here and definitely worth the wait if there is line to sit inside. Restaurant isn't the fanciest but has great food! They move pretty fast thru the waitlist, so you don't wait too long. You will definitely have leftovers and a full stomach when you leave. Might need a nap afterwards. read more

When we're in the SF area, we try to pitstop here. But, we've also made the trek to just eat or pick up party trays. We've introduced this place to many friends and they too, make the trek when possible. Our experience here has always been great. The food is piping hot when it arrives to our table and it's just darn tasty! Staff is friendly and attentive. We did have a delay with one of our dishes, chicken tocino. They apologized it took so long so they removed it from our bill. That was nice of them to do. The portions are generous so we have leftovers for dinner. I heard they were going to close because Mercedes is expanding. I asked our waiter if this was true. Good news! They are here to stay! They'll be renewing their contract for another 5 years. WHEW! Parking was a little tough since the church group in one of the suites was having an event. read more

Filipino cuisine [Daly City CA] We decided to dine here while we were in the area. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday evening at peak meal time and we were seated right away. The restaurant is small and cozy. Hubby was hankering for some soup dish which is perfect comfort food especially on a rainy day. We ordered the Beef Bulalo (menu description: tender beef bone-in shanks with assorted veggies). We ordered garlic rice with it. The soup came in a huge bowl and looked appetizing. The sad part... the meat was not nearly "tender" and the bone had hardly any bone marrow in it. The veggies was baby bokchoy which was not a generous amount in the soup. The soup was tasty though and good with the rice. We ordered halo-halo with my choice of Mango ice-cream on top (not Ube) and that was delicious! Customer service was great... love the Filipino hospitality. "Chibog" in Tagalog means "eating time." One gender neutral bathroom and they need to check it often and clean it. Review #3636 read more

Authentic Filipino food with generous portions. We ordered the sizzling sisig (combo) and kawali lechon with garlic rice. The lechon kawali had the right balance of crispy skin, tender meat, and just enough fat to keep it flavorful.

When it comes to Filipino food, chibog is my go-to spot. When I have friends who've never had Filipino food, this is where I go. It's solid, tasty, and big portions. Chibog has my favorite pork sisig, it's a good mix of crispy and soft pieces. The crispy short ribs, unmatched, especially with the soy sauce/vinegar sauce, chefs kiss. On my latest visit I stopped in for a quick lunch. I got the lechon kawali silog. It came with a generous serving of deep fried pork belly, hefty mound of garlic rice, and two over easy eggs. For $22 after tax and tip, it's well worth every penny. The staff here is so nice, and treats you like family. It's a smaller restaurant so there can be a wait, but during lunch time it's usually easy to snag a table. Long story short, if you are craving Filipino food, this is a spot worth checking out read more

Came to Chibog for some Filipino food and was not disappointed. Restaurant is in a secluded strip mall with decent parking. We were quickly greeted and seated in the sparsely decorated dining room. Low key but that is fine with us. We ordered their Sizzling Sisig Combo chicken and pork, the Pork Binagoongan and a bowl of the garlic rice. First thing is the portion size is fantastic. For me you need to feel like you get your moneys worth. Food was fresh and had great flavors and seasoning. The Sisig had so much meat with onions and the fried egg on top. So good! My favorite was the Binagoongan with "chunks" of fried but soft and moist pork belly, eggplant and bell peppers. Loved this! The garlic rice "bowl" was huge!! Not crazy over the top garlic (like garlic fries) but just a hint of garlic flavor that keeps you interested. Will go back again next time read more

I was pretty disappointed with my last visit to this place. To sum it up, it's service without a smile, and that's to put it kindly. As for the food, it really is just middle of the pack. I've had quite better tasting Filipino food around the South Bay and Easy Bay. I visited Chibog because of its feature on KQED. I was really hoping that Chibog was one of those hole in the wall hidden gems I would enjoy exploring, but I'm quite disappointed. We had the Lechon Kewali, Dinuguan, BBQ Chicken (ala carte), and the Halo Halo w/ Ube Ice Cream. Lechon Kewali was okay, but the rest felt like they missed the mark. The Lechon Kewali was comparable to other places I've visited. The Dinuguan just wasn't "rich", nor was it "chunky" with the good meaty, fatty, rich parts. It felt lacking and with too much vinegar. The BBQ Chicken was completely disappointing because of the amount of burnt-ness on the chicken, making large portions of it uneatable. This was very disappointing. The Halo Halo felt fine. It wasn't special. Small location with a small private lot for parking shared with other establishments. Chibog gets good traffic, so it gets busy--good for them. But there are other places that serve better tasting Filipino food at more affordable prices, but you may have to come to the South Bay (Pinot BBQ ATBP) or East Bay (Toppings Too) for them. I know we didn't try the Sisig, but nothing about Chibog would make us want to return even if we were in the area again. read more

So good! Authentic Filipino flavors, generous portions, and great service. The sisig and lumpia are a must. Always hits the spot.

Chibog is my go-to whenever I'm craving lechon kawali. I've ordered both takeout and dined in, and I definitely recommend eating there -- the lechon kawali comes out hot and crispy, way better fresh. The staff is quick and efficient, and the food usually comes out pretty fast. I've also tried their calamari (only available on weekends), lumpiang Shanghai, Filipino-style spaghetti, pork spare rib sinigang, and relyenong talong. Everything's been tasty and hits that comfort food spot. It does get pretty busy on weekends, and parking can be a bit of a headache since it's in a small plaza, so just keep that in mind. Overall, if you're in the area and craving Filipino food, Chibog is a solid choice. Nothing super fancy, but it gets the job done when that craving hits. read more

The garlic rice was flaky and had just the perfect amount of garlic and seasoning. It was so good and one could eat it with nothing else and still be happy.

Service was ok. The place wasn't as clean as I would have liked, but the food was generally good. A few things stood out. The lumpiang Shanghai were quite good. One of the best i have had locally, with a crunch on the outside and very moist on the inside. The sinigang was very tasty. The lechon kawali was good. The skin was crispy and the meat was moist. The only real let down was the sisig. Sisig should be the whole pig's head chopped up fine and fried crispy, served with a squeeze of lemon and an egg cracked right on the whole with a sizzling plate. In this case I could only see what looked like the lechon kawali just chopped up finely, which isn't the sisig that i understand is the original and typical. It was good, but wasn't the expectation i had. read more
